Courage

They say courage 
Is doing something
Even though you're
Scared. 
I say it's going on
Even when you
Know you can't
It's wearing red
When everyone
Else is wearing
Black.
Courage is also 
The inner strength
To hold your head
Up high
When others try
To knock it down
But, above all, it's
Having the inner
Core of steel that
Allows you to 
Continue on even 
When others 
Tell you that 
You can't.
